No controller Inout when run on Desktop

Open Brunvik opened this issue 9 months ago • 2 comments

When trying to run a game outside the Steam Gamemode the controller isn't recognized past the ES-DE menu. I've tried to play WiiU with cemu, cemu knows that the controller is there and lists it as connected but can't get any Input.

I've tried running RetroDeck outside of steam to see if anything gets recognized there, but sadly nothing works so far

Kind of a resurrect, as it could be, what I'm experiencing atm.

I'm on Bazzite 43 (KDE) on a PC, installed RetroDECK from Bazaar and copied my ~/retrodeck folder from my Steam Deck using rsync. When I launch a game, eg. on PS1 via RetroArch, it seems, Steam switches tot he Desktop controller profile, as I can move my mouse cursor. I'm on a triple screen setup and can see the mouse cursor moving on the left or right screen. The game itself does not react to any controller input.

I didn't configure anything special, and I'm not even sure, whether this is a RetroDECK-issue at all. The same happens, when I launch RetroDECK from within Big Picture mode.
